I LOVE WISE's
The milkshakes here are so seriously good. They serve them in these huge metal cups, and they are amazing. Breakfast is my favorite, (the only people in town who understand how to cook an egg 'over medium; :)    [03 Dec 2002 17:48:06]

Wise's is great
Not only do they have milkshakes, but they also have malts. Not too many places have malts anymore. I also love their lunch specials, pot roast, chicken purloo, goulash, etc. The soup is also good and everything is made there, including all the yummy sandwich fillings. My favorites are the pimento cheese with or without olives, chicken salad or tuna salad. The hamburgers and patty melts and grilled cheese are also quite good.    [31 Mar 2006 13:57:46]

Wise's Old Fashioned Charm
To go to Wise's is to step back in time to a place where people were kind to each other in a Norman Rockwell sort of way. Saddle up to the authentic Soda Fountain and order up the Pimento & Cheese Spread Sandwich and wash it down with a Malted Vanilla Shake. Glorious. The staff is friendly and fun. Lots of old timers enjoying the many classic Americana sandwiches, soups, and the chili made with love. When you get the bill, you'll laugh inside. How could anything be so affordable and yet so comfortingly good? Try it and see.    [21 Sep 2007 15:56:34]

Wises is the BEST!!!
Wises Drug Store is the perfect place to eat lunch. I've never had their breakfast but I am there every day at lunchtime. The people that work there are nice, and they take the time to learn your name. The food is delicious and all made right in front of you.    [30 Nov 2007 12:22:41]
